the object will float
it shows increasing acceleration
the acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s
When air resistance equals the pull of gravity, terminal velocity is reached. This is experienced by all falling objects if given enough time, and this is classically explained in Physics using skydivers.
If air resistance equals the force of gravity, the object will cease to accelerate, so its velocity will remain constant.
Air resistance equals the pull of gravity, so essentially zero.
Nearly all falling object are affected by the resistance of air. However some objects have a mass greater than the air can affect. There is also the case where air resistance equals that of gravity and the object will not fall any faster.
Assuming that you're referring to an object that is accelerating towards a massive body by means of gravitational attraction... When the force of frictional air resistance equals the opposing force of gravity, the net force on the object equals zero, and acceleration will cease. It is called terminal velocity, and the object will remain at this velocity until some new event happens.
Objects when falling that cannot ignore air resistance are things like feathers, leaves, seeds, or small pieces of paper just to name a few. Objects when falling that can ignore air resistance are things such as objects that are heavy and compact like rocks or metal balls.

From my experience it would depend upon the initial velocity along with the mass of the object and how gravity will cause it to accelerate. Distance also plays a part in that the longer the object has to fall the faster it will fall. That is until it reaches terminal velocity or when the force of gravity equals the resistance force like air resistance.
Based on the 9th grade book of Physical Science... Gravity is a force that acts between two masses, and Terminal velocity is the constant velocity of a falling object when the force of air resistance equals the force of gravity. So, gravity causes objects to accelerate downward, whereas air resistance acts in the direction opposite to the motion and reduces acceleration... which ties together terminal velocity.
When THE FRICTION BETWEEN THE OBJECT AND THE ATMOSPHEREequals the force of gravity on a falling object the object reaches terminal velocity.
-- The net vertical force on it is zero. -- Its acceleration is zero. -- Its speed is constant. -- Its speed is what's often called its "terminal velocity".
